Danny is off to Australia

Australian honeybee scientists and Australian beekeepers asked Danny to consult with them on BeeWeaver's success in breeding varroa tolerant stock. He will also take this opportunity to meet with the producers of TaylorMade queens and bees, Warren and Rose Taylor. Despite high honey prices in Australia the Taylors have committed to ship bees to the US in 2010. Australia, amazingly, has remained varroa free. In the meantime, the beekeeping community is choosing to arm itself with information. We are hopeful that Danny's information will prove useful to the Australians and help them stay a step ahead of varroa.
